Accessing your home directory from a Unix/Linux host is as simple as logging in. You may log in remotely from any host using a secure protocol such as SSH2. For Windows users, PuTTY is recommended and can be downloaded for free. For Mac users, you can use the terminal (found under Applications -> Utilities).
